Millennium Hotel New Plymouth Waterfront
Easy access to local dining area. Salt restaurant staff were fantastic and the meal in the restaurant was exceptional - beyond anything I had expected for a hotel restaurant. Clean, Tidy and quiet, decor is a little dated. Self parking and no extra cost is a bonus!
